Not every Australian grows up on a farm, but we believe everyone should have the chance to experience the hands-on learning that comes with caring for animals, nurturing the environment, and growing their own food.
Taking advantage of our Agricultural Education program is a fantastic opportunity to bring your students and family to the Show. Experience agricultural education in workshops, performances and presentations, all with a fun, interactive atmosphere.
As the Beef Capital and the centre of the region’s rich farming and grazing lands, the Rocky Show plays an important role in helping every attendee understand the importance of our agricultural sector.
